“A”chievers

Student Reporter: Ashlee Ansay

It used to be a pat on the back or a parent’s bribe was enough for students to want to excel at school, but recently Memorial Mall has extended an offer to help kids strive even more.

Memorial Mall set up a program to encourage students and schools to succeed academically, and in return students could receive a reward for their academic performance. Students can register for a chance to reward themselves and their favorite teacher for each “A” they receive on their report card (1st quarter, 1st semester, 3rd quarter, and final report periods). Each month, one student’s name will be drawn during the school year for a $25 Memorial Mall Gift Card. One teacher’s name will also be drawn each month in a separate drawing for a $25 Memorial Mall Gift Card as well.

To register for the reward, you can report to the Mall Office Monday through Friday from 9 am to 5 pm and present your report card. You then can fill out an entry form for every “A” on your report card or any grade equivalent, and also nominate your favorite teacher. The drawing is held on the first weekday of the month starting December and ending in July. The winners will be contacted by telephone.
